(C) Birds that are known as "Darwin's finches", For example, there were three or four distinct "varieties" or species of finches on the different islands. The most important differences between the species are in the size and shape of the beak.

He saw the slightly different forms of finches and turtles on different islands as early stages in the development of new species from common ancestors.

(D) He did observe that on the islands there are different forms of animals that would otherwise be similar. Their attention was also directed to the differences in the shapes of the giant tortoise shells, with each island in a slightly different form.

Why should the fedral government have more power than state government? State over federal?

nadezda [96]

Federal Government > State Government

The rationale for this is that we live in a global world and need collective responses to global challenges. Instead of there being a Utah response and a Virginia response to the need for more STEM graduates, there should be a US response. Economies of scale also come into play. It can cost less and be more efficient to have resources centralized.

State Government > Federal Government

America was founded after a revolution rejected a strong central monarchy and America needs to continue to honor that by allowing citizens in Utah to have different approaches than Virginia. When convenient, the states can choose to collectively band together on issues like defense but that should be the exception and not the rule.

yanalaym [24]

Racism encompasses both prejudice, the belief that people belong to distinct races with innate hierarchical differences that can be measured and judged; and discrimination, the practice of treating people differently on the basis of their race.

Prejudice against people who belong to certain races involve attitudes and beliefs about them based on stereotypes that are not always accurate. Examples of prejudiced beliefs can include: "Asians are smart", "Muslims are terrorists" or "Americans are ignorant".

Discrimination on the other hand involves behaviors and actions towards individuals of certain races based on prejudices. Examples of discrimination include: making fun of someone's skin color or ethnicity, and not hiring a candidate for a job on the basis that he/ she belongs to an ethnic minority.

A locals retail organization has been using data which was produced ten years previously on the buying habits of the local popul

Yuki888 [10]

This questions includes two types of surveys. The first one is a consumer habits survey, while the second one is the one designed for the movie director.

In the first case, we learn that sales have been decreasing rapidly in the last four years. Over this same period of time, the town has grown in size and become a commuter town with a lot of new states for families to move into. The survey that is designed needs to measure several thing. First, it needs to provide information on the size and share of the market. It also needs to perform market profiling (who are the consumers? what are they like?). Finally, it needs to track what the habits and uses of the consumers are like, so that the products can best address these needs.

The purpose of this questionnaire would be learning more about the audience's reactions and feelings towards the movie. Moreover, the purpose of this would be to inform the director of any necessary changes. The questionnaire should be completed immediately after the viewing. It should also be short and contain only a few questions, with the option to elaborate if necessary. Some of the questions you could use would be:

While watching the movie, did you feel distracted at any point? When?
Did you feel the movie lasted longer than necessary?
Were there any scenes that felt pointless, long or irrelevant?
If you had to eliminate 10 minutes of the movies, which ones would you eliminate?
How likely are you to recommend the movie to your friends?
How likely are you to watch the movie again?
